Erdoğan’s ‘Hitler-İnönü’ comparison sparks debate

http://www.todayszaman.com/tz-web/news- ... ebate.html

Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan’s comparison of former statesman and Republican People’s Party (CHP) Chairman İsmet İnönü, who succeeded Mustafa Kemal Atatürk as president of Turkey, to Adolf Hitler has caused a furor in Ankara.

[...]

After the death of Atatürk, İnönü was elected as the second president of the Republic of Turkey and enjoyed the official title of “national chief.” His period was an authoritarian period for many. Under İnönü’s rule, the state pursued policies such as a welfare tax imposed on minorities at extremely high rates. Minorities were offered the choice of paying or going to labor camps.
